It's been awhile since my last entry and, thank G-d, the school year has been off to a great start. My eldest son attends school in NY and my younger two are local (NJ). That means I get up earlier than last year to ensure that my oldest doesn't miss the bus. Some moms may think I'm crazy to get up so early, but when you think of the alternative it makes sense. You see, my son is not a morning person. That means if I don't get him up in the morning and he misses the bus, there is no way for him to get to school. Why punish myself?
Then it's time for the next shift: my younger two. My middle child happens to be a morning person. So, getting him up in the morning is not as big a challenge. My daughter, the youngest, is a typical girl: some days are easier than others. All in all, it's much easier than last year. I am my own (a.m.) carpool so I don't have to worry about making stops along the way.
That brings me to PTC time. It's hard to believe that the first trimester of school is over. That means it's time to meet the teachers one-on-one and see how well our kids are doing. I am very optimistic (poo,poo) as my kids appear to be happy. (Ok, content, since we are talking about school.) So, hopefully my expectations will be met.
Unfortunately, we've just learned that one of our principals will be leaving come next year. It is amazing how many principals we have had since my kids began at the school. But that's a whole separate topic...
Stay tuned...
